I have been planning our recovering the patio chairs in my parents’ backyard for the longest. Our current cushions are ripped and ugly and dirty. My dad finally okay-ed me getting the fabric I would need tomorrow after class, and I have to get them all done before the 4th of July! Fingers crossed I can power through. My 8:30am class is over on Tuesday, so I will have all of Wednesday to finish what I don’t do over the next two days. I made my final two papers priority which is why I didn’t go get the stuff today.
I am also going to pick up some brown rustoleum for the chairs (shh!!) and those will get their own little makeover. But I have already ripped the fabric from the cushions — some of it fell apart when I touched it. I have 3 clean, pink marks on one of my fingers from the fibers in the fabric fighting me.
In other, more exciting news, I FINALLY got a job!!! I am so incredibly excited, because my whole plan was to either get a job my first year of college, or the ummer after, and it’s finally happening! My parents are ecstatic (naturally).
I’m just happy to have a few days of breathing room between my 8am class and the one that starts the week after at 1pm. I’ll be able to sleep a little bit longer, but what’s the fun in that, really?
ALSO. Before I end this post, I wanted to let you guys know that you can now subscribe to this blog on Bloglovin’! Since my favorite, Google Reader, is shutting down tomorrow, I am still working on getting all the blogs I want followed on my page.
Happy Sunday, everyone! I will try to have a tutorial or two up this week, but if I don’t, have a wonderful Fourth of July and stay safe!
